Flowers for the Living

Neal Shapiro, chair of the community’s Chevra Kadisha, was feted on November 5 by Agudas Achim’s Brotherhood. Like all members of the Chevra Kadisha burial society, Neal embodies a high standard of community service that is devoid of ulterior motives. Flowers for the Living has been an Agudas tradition since 1968. Among the Brotherhood’s beneficiaries is a Jewish camp scholarship fund managed by the Columbus Jewish Foundation.
